Bali

Hi all.
I just came back from Bali together with Wei Lun, Wilfred, Leon, Chin Yue, Tubby and Shaon.
Just going to do a short blog about how I spent my days and feelings after the trip.

Monday night:
Headed to find Wei Lun.
Had dinner together at Tampines Kopitiam and then headed back to his house to lepak.
After that Tubby's Dad fetched the two of us towards the airport.
Did our usual stuffs and then headed to board the plane.

Tuesday morning:
Reached Bali Airport at around 6.30am or so.
Went to check in to our hotel and went to change money.
Ate mac breakfast and then went to check in.
Can't believe all the things there are so cheap.
Mac's breakfast (Not mac breakfast) for around $3.
After that headed to settle some admin stuffs like SIM card and money.
Then headed back to the villa to check in.
Our villa is awesome.
3 Storeys.
1st floor living room.
2nd floor bedroom.
3rd floor balcony.
Beds are big and comfy.
Lay out is simple and everything about the villa is just very pleasing.
So headed out to eat lunch.
Ate ramen for lunch and then headed to the beach.
Very first activity was surfing.
Didn't know how to surf but Leon taught me and Wilfred how to.
Quite fun but still couldn't get the hang of it.
And I had abrasions all over the front of my body.
FUCKING PAIN.
So went to have dinner and then headed back to the hotel.
And things that happen in the hotel, I shall keep it offline.
Interested people can ask me directly :)

Omg I can't really remember what we did on Wednesday.
Just remember I went to skygarden at night and went to surfing again on Thursday.

HAHAHAHA I'm sorry for the fucked up post.
But I'm rushing off to teach tuition in 45 mins time.
And I haven't bathe and eat.
~~~~

*EDIT*
IM BACK HOME.

Wednesday morning:
Went to do white water rafting.
Damn awesome.
Feels like we're back in paddlers again.
HAHAHA.
The rafting got us so rekt-ed.
But no one fell off the boat.
Not like my sabah trip when I was sec 3 HAHAHA.
Fell off the boat.
ANYWAY, Yup so after rafting, we ate lunch and then kind of forgot what we did in between.
But went to skygarden at night.
Stomach wasn't feeling so well so didn't drink that much.
The 6 of them was just so high.
Hahahaha.
Thankful that they pulled me to join in.
Wasn't as fun as if I drank more.
Fuck stomach.
:/
But still enjoyed watching them getting so wasted.
HAHAHA.
Especially tubby sitting down at the roadside after we left.
Mie Sedaap after skygarden and then sort of brought them back to the hotel.
SLEPT AT 4+

Thursday morning:
Woke up at 9+ and then went to eat breakfast.
Then decided to go surfing again.
Hahahaha.
This time surfing was so much better.
Managed to reach the beach 4 times hahahaha.
Fucking fun.
Enjoyed the 2nd surfing session so much more.
Maybe cause the abrasion wasn't that pain.
So after surfing we went to shop around for shoes.
Also, force prepped for the next day ascent to mount batur.
So we slept at 11+
Ate Mie Sedaap again before sleeping HAHAHA.

Friday Morning:
Woke up at 1+am and then went down our villa and headed to Mount Batur.
So reached the base at around 4am?
Then started trekking out.
Reached the lower peak at around 6am and then we started waiting for the sun rise.
Sun rise was breathtaking.
Scenery was so amazing.
Really enjoyed the sunrise.
Cold and freezing but warm at heart.
<3 p="">So after watching the sunrise, started to hike down.
And guess who we saw?
NOC.
OMGGGGGGGGGG.
HAHAHAHA.
Saw xi kway ong, sylvia, michelle, nina and berlin (huixuanxuan)
Hahahaha.
Like how they speak chinese in real life and they are Sylvia is totally the same as in the youtube videos.
They looked damn shag from the climb.
Hahaha then their instagram all saying "Won't want to climb a mountain ever again"
HAHAHA.
Damn funny.
So went down to the base and then went to eat our brunch at somewhere opposite the mountain.
Great nasi goreng and mee goreng.
Then headed back to the hotel.
Sorted out our stuffs and left the hotel.
Went to walk around Kuta and ate our dinner at a beach.
And after dinner, headed back to the airport and yeah, that's the end of the trip.

But generally, I would like to commend this trip as a whole.
It was amazing company.
Going with all my good friends.
And make me look forward to my Phuket and Krabi trip next week.
Loved the feeling where you can detach yourself from the realities of Singapore.
And especially reflected a lot during this trip.
Obstacles like what Wilfred said on instagram, I guess the obstacles made us understand certain things about our friendship as a whole.
Didn't see it as a problem but just a time for us to take a break and reflect upon ourselves.
I enjoyed this trip as a whole and I'm very thankful to Wilfred for planning all this.
And I'm sure all of us got something to take away from this trip.
And till my next trip to Phuket, going to work and climb.
Back to my usual lifestyle.
Usual lifestyle but different me.
:)
Wei Lun and Tubby would understand what I mean :DDDDDD
Thanks for reading guys!

Wait for my Phuket and Krabi posts :D

PICTURES ARE GONNA BE UP ON WILFRED'S / WEI LUN'S FACEBOOK.
SO JUST BE PATIENT!!!
See ya guys.

Pumpfest NMQ 2015

As I touched the last tile of Route 6, I remembered I was so happy but somehow not everyone cheered for me.

Because the whistle blew.

I was late by 2 seconds.

This means that I only completed 2 routes out of 6 in the competition.

I was so extremely pissed with myself.

Why did I drink that sip of water?
Why did I not get the rules correct.

When it's 1 minute left, I thought it was 2 minutes left.

I took my time.

And in my mind, I was thinking "There goes my finalist placing. Just cause of 2 seconds."

Was so upset the whole time, but kind of get over it by the fact that it was just a careless mistake of mine.

So I was collecting my photos from the competition and Justin Mo was saying "Results are out bro, let's go."

Kind of reluctant to see my results, but kind of interested to see where I was also.

Mixed feelings.

I popped my head through the crowd that was around the slip of results.
Ang Wee Pin......
Ang Wee Pin.....
Finding......

And there I saw it, I saw my name in the shaded region.

I was 3rd!
WTF.

It really came as a shock for me.

I did not expect that result at all.

I was so FUCKING HAPPY.

Sorry I need to use that.

SO FUCKING HAPPY.
I remembered jumping around when I saw the results.
Hahaha congrats to Joshua too!

Really like to thank J MO for guiding me through the training phase.

And I'm so glad those late night trainings weren't wasted.

Even though I can say I didn't train to my hardest.

But I can safely say, the effort I put in somehow paid off.

Next up is NMF 2015.

Novice Man Finals.

If anyone is interested to come for my finals.

It'll be at Canopy (Behind JCUBE)

1440 - 1540.

~~~~~~~~~ 

Thanks to those who congratulated me.

Really appreciated!!!!! 

I feel that it's weird sometimes

that 2 years in the army,
And 2 years in the uni for girls.
Create such a big change in friendship.
After this two years, I just felt that most of the friends around me are becoming different.
It feels as if like everyone is....

Strangers again.

OR maybe I'm just the weird one.

Not saying that it is a bad thing or what.
There are people with good changes.
But it still feels weird.
Somtimes when you look into someone else's eyes, you could see that he/she lost it.
He/she is not the same anymore.

Okay, I guess I'm probably the weird one.

And randomly, I'll like to say,
I miss you.
Thanks for visiting my mind time and time again.
Appreciate it.
Not.

Dedication

Hi all!
This is going to be a little gay but it's going to be a dedicated post to a very good friend of mine called Tee Chin Yue.
Known him for 9 years and still counting.
And I really like how we have seen each other grown up throughout the 9 years.
A little affected by alcohol now hence the sudden urge to post hahahaha.
But in all seriousness, I really want to thank him for being there for me throughout my life.
We share too many common thoughts ever since Secondary 1.
(Except the first day we knew each other you told me to shut up)
Knn
HAHAHAHA
But yeah, I'm so grateful to have a friend like you.
So similar in our ideas.
And even up to today, we still dare to open up to each other as if we have been talking everyday.
I guess that's a definition of a good friend.
You know that person is your good friend when he/she makes you ponder about things so bad that you'll still probably think about when you go to sleep.
Thanks for being that friend.
Wooooooooooooo.

G A Y

To an everlasting friendship~~~~~~~~~~~~~`
*cheers*

LTC 2015

Just came back from Leadership Training Camp (LTC) 2015.
So while my emotions are still fresh, I shall try to blog down my emotions.
I'm very very tired so please mind my English.
It might not even make any sense.
Hahaha.

Wilfred, Wei Lun and Leon went back to LTC back in 2014.
I did not join them because I just passed out from GCC and I don't wanna take leave just for LTC.
However, I did went back to MJC at that time to look around.
Feels good to be back in MJ that day.

And now, 2015, Wilfred decided to pull us back to LTC again.
Even though I decide to sign up for it, I wasn't like strongly looking forward to go LTC.
It's just a "Okay I'm going back for LTC from 5-8 june."
I was very unsure on how it would turn out.
And at times I even felt lazy to go to LTC.

But to be very honest, I really enjoyed my LTC as a facilitator this time round.
It opened my eyes to how things were run in a non-army context.
So Gavin was our camp commandant (CO equivalent)
And our role was facilitator (3SG equivalent?)
So there were similarities between how things work in army and in non-army situations.
Slowly, I managed to find out the differences and then when this differences bridged, I feel so at ease.
Walking around in MJC made me feel at home.
I recalled all the times I was in school.
All the different corners of the school had its own stories to tell.
It was really weird for me to feel so at ease in the school.
And also it was really weird for me to feel how I feel as a JC kid again.
JC times were so fun.

My very own group A6 made me realised that I've grew quite a bit.
I see myself in them back when I was 17 years old and I compare it with my current self.
I can feel the differences.
And the differences were really really weird for me.

I was lucky to have Eugene as my partner who was very experienced in LTC because it was his 5th year back here.
And I was thinking "Wah really that fun meh come back 5 years"
But when it all ended this morning, I felt empty.
I felt like I was part of something all along but I lost it to time.
Eugene told me that every time he comes back, he learns something new.
Somemore Eugene is and infantry officer. Hahahahaha.

Yeah so it's really hard for me to explain what I'm feeling now.
But generally is a good feeling that I'm part of something big.
And that I've influenced someone's life.
Overall, I really enjoyed LTC and I highly likely will be back again.

Thanks for reading this short post.
That doesn't make sense at some parts.
Good night guys I'm gonna nap.
:D
